Description
-
The report focuses on the conservation and sustainable management of wetlands in the Nilgiris, Tamil Nadu, highlighting their crucial role in biodiversity and the livelihoods of local communities, particularly Indigenous groups like the Todas and Badagas. Wetlands, often undervalued and threatened by agriculture and urban development, are essential for water supply and ecological balance. The project involved data collection, awareness campaigns, and the creation of local management plans for five key wetlands, aiming to address pollution, habitat degradation, and stakeholder involvement in conservation efforts. Active restoration activities were initiated to enhance wetland health and community engagement.
